Emission Control Action Programs

Emission Control Action Programs. A. Any person responsible for the operation of a source of air contaminant which emits 0.25 tons per day or more of air contaminants for which air standards have been adopted shall prepare emission control action programs, consistent with good industrial practice and safe operating procedures, for reducing the emission of air contaminants into the outdoor atmosphere during periods of an AIR POLLUTION ALERT, AIR POLLUTION WARNING, AND AIR POLLUTION EMERGENCY. Emission control action programs shall be designed to reduce or eliminate emissions of air contaminants into the outdoor atmosphere in accordance with the objectives set forth in Tables 1-5 which are made a part of this rule. B. Emission control action programs as required under Rule 3.4.A. shall be in writing and show the source of air contamination, the approximate amount of reduction of contaminants, the approximate time required to effect the program, a brief description of the manner in which the reduction will be achieved during each stage of an air pollution episode, and such other information as the Commission shall deem pertinent. C. During a condition of AIR POLLUTION ALERT, AIR POLLUTION WARNING, AND AIR POLLUTION EMERGENCY, emission control action programs as required by Rule 3.4.A. shall be made available on the premises to any person authorized to enforce the provisions of the Commission’s emergency procedure. D. Emission control action programs as required by Rule 3.4.A. shall be submitted to the Commission in accordance with procedures described in Commission Regulation Miss. Admin Code, Title 11, Part 2, Chapter 2; such emission control action programs shall be subject to review and approval by the Commission. If, in the opinion of the Commission, such emission control action programs do not effectively carry out the objectives as set forth in Tables 1-5, the Commission may disapprove said emission control action programs, state its reason for disapproval and order the preparation of amended emission control action programs within the time period specified in the order. Any person aggrieved by the order requiring the preparation of a revised program is entitled to a hearing in accordance with Section 49-17-41, Mississippi Code of 1972. If the person responsible fails within the time period specified in the order to submit an amended emission control action program which in the opinion of the Commission meets the said objectives, the Commission may revise the emission control action program to cause it to meet these objectives. Such revised program will thereafter be the emission control action program which the person responsible will put into effect upon the issuance of an appropriate order by the Commission.
